A true rarity: this small, West African island is virtually unknown but boasts a long and rich cacao tradition. It is considered the cradle of West African cacao. The small farmers of the CECAQ 11 cooperative grow a unique island cacao shaped by its terroir, very chocolatey with a mild fruity flavor. Taste the richness in this 75% cacao single origin bar, surprisingly mild for a dark chocolate, with an excellent melt, and notes of tropical fruit..
Fragrance notes: fruity, dried apricots, Baguettes
Tasting notes: very mild for a dark chocolate. Red cherries, beautiful roast aroma, good melt, notes of baguettes, slightly astringent finish

Maker
ZotterZotter was started by a husband and wife team in 1987. They have made many strides over the last decade tucked away in a picturesque rolling hills landscape of Austria. Zotter is the only company in Europe that uses all organic and Fair Trade ingredients. They also have sustainable business practices, using solar and geothermal energy to run their entire production facility, and use packaging made from renewable sources. Zotter's philosophy has garnered them many awards both for their business success and chocolate making. They are a family business that adhere to family principles. This allows for a plethora of creative freedom to create fun and exciting chocolate bars. Zotter first produced their "hand scooped" bars with couverture from Valrhona and Callebaut but always dreamed of making their own chocolate, and in 2006 this became a reality. We feature Zotter's Labooko line of chocolates, that feature cacao sourced from all over the world. Zotter has the largest line of chocolate in the world with over 450 different chocolate in their range.
Loved this bar, got the fruity notes, some spice and rich chocolatey goodness. I appreciate the slightly higher than normal cacao percent as well.
